IR Measurbation: 645D Vs D800



The new D800 measurbation samples have been out at the IR, now we can use their "comparometer" to measurbate and "compare" endlessly!

Choose 645D and the D800, the match begins, for a few examples (Click on the following to view samplein full size in new tab/window):-

645D, ISO 100, 75mm, f/8

D800, ISO 100, 70mm, f/8

645D, ISO 800, 75mm, f/8

D800, ISO 800, 70mm, f/8

Now, I can safely conclude that the 645D is endangered! At less than 1/3rd of the cost of a 645D, the D800 actually lives up quite well to the 645, despite that I think the 645D images are still slightly better in IQ at *low* ISOs. Needless to say more about the rich feature set, better portability and much higher system performance of the D800.
